KCU students and staff participated in an inspiring event on KC Royals Opening Day. Relay the Way formed a continuous line of baseball enthusiasts, all the way from Union Station to Kauffman Stadium, passing a single baseball to the home of the KC Royals. It's being called the longest first pitch in baseball history--coming in at around 9 miles. The event served as a fundraiser aimed at launching the KC Urban Youth Academy baseball program which will be headquartered just a few blocks from KCU at Parade Park near 18th and Vine.
